Update: 10:23PM: John Tortorella on the MSG Post game show.

“I didn’t make him available. He feels awful about it.”

“He’s a great kid. I don’t think he realized what would happen. I don’t think it’s planned by him. He crossed a line. He apologized to the team right away. It was wrong, he knows that, the leadership of the club will take over.”

“it’s wrong, we all know that. It was the wrong thing to do. I’m in a protective mode with him because I think he deserves protecting. He is a solid solid guy who made a mistake. He’s not an idiot. There are some idiots in our league but he isn’t an idiot”

Ryan Callahan said on the post game show that Anisimov didn’t mean anything by it, that he likes to celebrate and he understands what he did

Update: 7:24PM: At NHL.com, Dave Lozo got reaction from some members of the Lightning:

“I don’t know if you saw the replay, but he turned back and pointed the stick like a gun and shot it at Vinny. We don’t need that in our sport. For the most part, you don’t see that too much. But it happens once in a while and it’s dealt with.”

“He pointed his stick and fired it our net, so I’m sure Torts wasn’t really impressed with that,” Lecavalier said. “He wasn’t very respectful.”
